Change of Heart

In the beginning, I chose to go to U of L because it was close to home and I figured I'd save some gas money. It didn't mean much to me at first because I was majoring in nursing, and I could go to almost any school for that. But Thursday morning began to change my opinion. Of course, I was tired...it was 7 o'clock in the morning. But the dancing and singing SOSers walking around began to wake me up. After standing in the long line to get my room key, I finally got to my room [on the 4th floor...so come early], dropped my stuff off, and headed back downstairs. The first thing we did was begin to do cheers to get us in the spirit [and probably wake us up.]

The rest of the first day consisted of listening to a lot of people talk about things we probably won’t remember, such as finances and campus health. After we ate dinner, the fun began. We watched the SOSers perform some skits. We all had a lot of fun and had a few reality checks during them. Afterwards, we got to go to different areas for the night to have fun. I chose to go to the Red Barn for the Orientation Jam. It was a night full of fun and dancing. After that long day though, it felt good to just go to bed.

The next day was mainly spent registering for your classes and doing the Cardinal Challenge. It was really fun, but also very helpful.

My orientation experience was a lot of fun. Not only did I meet some new friends with my same major, but it helped make me more comfortable about my transition from high school to college. After those two days I know I made the right choice to become a Cardinal. :)
